2017 single by DJ Khaled featuring Justin Bieber, Quavo, Chance the Rapper, and Lil Wayne
"I'm the One " is a song by American disc jockey DJ Khaled featuring Canadian singer Justin Bieber and American rappers Quavo , Chance the Rapper , and Lil Wayne . The song was released on April 28, 2017, by We the Best and Epic Records as the second single from Khaled's tenth studio album Grateful .[ 1] [ 3] [ 4] On July 27, 2018, all artists, with the exception of Lil Wayne, were featured on Khaled's "No Brainer " from his eleventh studio album, Father of Asahd (2019). On October 19, 2020, the song surpassed one billion streams on Spotify .[ 5]
DJ Khaled initially marketed the song in February 2017 by posting photos of the music video on his Instagram account.[ 6] He announced the song's release date, title, and cover art on April 24, 2017.[ 7] According to DJ Khaled, Quavo completed his verse for the song in five minutes after listening to the instrumentals.[ 8]
The song is written in the key of G major , following a chord progression of G-Em-C-D.[ 9] DJ Khaled introduces the song, Justin Bieber sings the chorus, and Quavo , Chance The Rapper , and Lil Wayne take the verses.
"I'm the One" debuted atop the Billboard Hot 100 , becoming the first number-one single on the chart for DJ Khaled, Chance the Rapper,[ 10] and Quavo (as a solo performer apart from Migos ). It became the first hip hop song to do so since "Not Afraid " by Eminem in 2010.[ 1] It became Bieber 's fourth chart-topper, following the first three singles off Purpose . Lil Wayne topped the chart for the third time in his career, but for the first time since 2009.[ 11] The song also entered the UK Singles Chart at number one , a first for DJ Khaled, Quavo, Lil Wayne, and Chance the Rapper; it was Bieber's fifth chart-topping song in the UK.[ 12] It also entered at number one in Australia, Scotland, and Canada, and debuted in the top ten in countries including Germany, Ireland, and New Zealand.
The music video for "I'm the One", directed by Eif Rivera,[ 13] was uploaded onto Khaled's YouTube channel on April 28, 2017.[ 14] Models Alexa Lawrence and Iryna Ivanova and Quavo's fellow Migos members, Offset and Takeoff , make cameo appearances in the video. The video was filmed at a luxury mansion in 26848 CA-1, Malibu, CA 90265, USA, erroneously reported to be Khaled's own.[citation needed ] As of July 2022, it has received more than 1.6 billion views on YouTube.[ 15]
